Notorious Posted October 8, 2008 Report Share Posted October 8, 2008 Hi Im new here The other forums i post on have the following feature. When u post in a certian thread, on the main page of that section, the thread u posted in gets some kind of tag/marking making u aware that u have posted in a given thread. Seeing as the site is so big with many sections I think it would be usefull to keep track of which threads u have posted in and which thread u need to keep checking on waiting for a response to ur questions/post :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bettarazzi Posted October 8, 2008 Report Share Posted October 8, 2008 I've noticed that functionality in other forums as well. But I think it depends what software the forum is based on. This forum uses IP Board and the other IP Board forums I've seen don't have that functionality either. It's possible that it's something the admins can turn on. But as an alternative you can subscribe to threads that's you're interested by clicking on Options in the top right corner and selecting Track this topic. You'll then get an email whenever someone responds. Or I think you can also set it to send it to you in digest form. Edit: I meant top right corner not top left :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghengis Posted October 9, 2008 Report Share Posted October 9, 2008 Must contradict you there, 'razzi. Bomberblitz Forum is an Invision board, and has thread tags. I took a screen cap to show you, but my Photoshop is caput, so I had to use MS Publisher which sucks bottom. This'll have to do... See the blue envelope thingy? The black spot in the middle indicates that I've posted in that Thread... An alternative, Notorious (that I use often), is to find a Thread that you know you've posted in, click on your own Handle, and search more posts. I'm always forgetting what I've posted where, so this trick, although convoluted, works well for me... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Callatya Posted October 10, 2008 Report Share Posted October 10, 2008 I'll have a look at it. It does sound like a good idea! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bettarazzi Posted October 10, 2008 Report Share Posted October 10, 2008 Umm.... well... BomberBlitz would be the last forum on the planet I'd ever look at. But point taken. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jess Posted October 10, 2008 Report Share Posted October 10, 2008 Hey, We can add the tags and a few other features in the days and weeks for sure! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
y2jdaze Posted October 11, 2008 Report Share Posted October 11, 2008 just to ask... what were you guys doing last nite? forum was offline for hours: P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Callatya Posted October 11, 2008 Report Share Posted October 11, 2008 Jess was working her magic We are upgraded. Still more to do, but we are getting there :blink: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghengis Posted October 11, 2008 Report Share Posted October 11, 2008 Umm.... well... BomberBlitz would be the last forum on the planet I'd ever look at. But point taken. And perfectly understandable, too... You're probably even some lousy bloody Collingwood fan or something to boot The answer, my friends, is blowing in the wind, the answer is... Ehem. Sorry. There are Thread tags here... They've been staring us all in the face the whole time. At least, I think so... Those little Folder things beside each Thread in a particular Room? You've all seen them?? Have any of you noticed the white-out corner piece on some of those icons? It is my theory, which belongs to me, and all that it is too, that the white corner piece denotes which Threads I've (we've) posted in... Try it. Go back past some Threads that you know you've replied to, and even ones you know you haven't, and see if this works for you... Adulation and praise may now commence. Thank you.

Bettarazzi Posted October 11, 2008 Report Share Posted October 11, 2008 LOL. Nah... no football knowledge at all. I think you might be right about the thread tags though. But come on.... that's just tooooo subtle for my super advanced myopia. It's not even in the icon key at the bottom. But what the hell... ALL HAIL GHENGIS!! :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peta Posted October 11, 2008 Report Share Posted October 11, 2008 argh yes that would be it - I have only posted to two threads in this section and both have the white corners! PS. Ghengis - I just noticed your signature and cracked up laughing... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Callatya Posted October 12, 2008 Report Share Posted October 12, 2008 Geez, I didn't ever realise those things had a purpose I might have to go back and follow up on some things now. *grumble* way to make more work for me Ghengis :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bettarazzi Posted October 13, 2008 Report Share Posted October 13, 2008 You focused on the wrong part of Abbey's response. This was where she was giving you adulation and praise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
